Supertramp has always been a musical class act. Not many bands can harmonize, both instrumentally and vocally, the way they do. And while we’re not talking about “Bohemian Rhapsody”-type vocal harmonies, they do make for a nice throwback to the 1950s. This, then, is their best-of album…but it presents a unique problem. Rather like A Flock of Seagulls, how do you get a full-length compilation out of a group that really blew its whole wad of talent on a select handful of songs?
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not slamming Supertramp, but I have listened to their actual albums in the past and 
got the very distinct impression that the effort was spent on the singles – the stuff which was going to get airplay. The solution for that is their best-of album, which puts all of the familiar tunes, and a few less-familiar ones, into something of a vaguely chronological order for the benefit of those who, like myself, enjoy the music but fall short of really being fans.
